This influential design movement began because people got fed up with machines. The Arts and Crafts movement promoted economic and social reform, sticking up for ordinary workers and craftspeople.

2. como se llama mi canal???
3. hello mr beedon!! I didn't know you had a YouTube channel!
4. Hello, I am Brazilian and I would ask for the translation of this video.
   With automatic translation by legend, the text is inlegível, and can not understand.
   I'm sure this video will help me a lot, and help my university room! Thank you!
5. Hi, its a great job!!! What software you use to make these animated videos?
6. Great Video!!!!
7. know your worth!
8. Arts and Crafts Style needs to be understood as the first of several attempts to come to grips with the implications of industrialization by opposing its most deleterious effects. It's influences were Gothic Revival, Medieval Romanticism and especially in the case of William Morris, social reform for craftsmen/designers. It was followed by Victorian, Art Nouveau, Mission Revival, Craftsman, Art Deco and finally Prairie styles. Bauhaus and Modernism represented more acceptance of industrialization, mass production, and machine finishes rather than hand crafting.
9. The narrator's accent tho
10. We don't care about how our iPhones or MacBooks are made. If we did care, the fact that child laborers and impoverished workers are exploited in 3rd world countries would trouble us. 
11. It looks good, but without captions I can't follow a word as I'm deaf. I expect an Institution like OU to provide them.
12. 0:55 Steam sucks. Are you signalling anything?
13. Bloody gorgeous, and big help on knowing more about the subject.
14. For some things, "hand made" is nice, but for precision instruments and machinery, you can't beat computerized, robotic manufacturing.
15. I dabble in electronic music... You could say that I'm mastering my machines.
16. 0:59 Steam is not that bad, they have some pretty good offers.
17. Well William Moris was also fan of Karl Marx, that was his point, not to exploit people, alienate in a fabric instead of their own atelier and left them unsatisfied with their job.
18. This Morris guy is like the first hipster
19. I rather liked this video/series. People should know about this.
20. I have a feeling this was made using After effects :)
